The office of the Governor will be open every working; hour, every working day In the year and many hours beside. Ur administration will be- a business administration in the sense that gov ernment Is business and to be success ful must be prudently, systematically, energetically and economically conduct ed. It ahall not be a 'dollar adminis tration.' The dollar will not be placed above- manhood nor wealth above hu manity. I would, if possible, avoid the laying of a charge against me of being a dreamer or a visionary, but neither tha fear of that nor the dread of an ac cusation of Socialism ahall keep me from striving to better the condition of tne people of our state and by example, at least, to help humanity.

It will therefore have to be repassed by the House of Commons, ss provided by the Parliament bill. Premier Asqulth, who referred to the overclouding of Anglo-German rela tions aa a "most lamentable fact," took occasion to deny tha story that tha British fleet last Autumn was prepar ing for an aggressive attack on Ger many. "It was a pure Invention, without a shadow of foundation." he said. "Both tha German government and our own are animated by a sincere desire to bring about a better state of under standing.

Sasplrloa Is Dispelled. "Such an exchange of .views under such conditions ought to dispel the sus picion that either government contem plates aggressive designs against the by TELEGHFM on other. That bv Itself would be a great gain." Mr. Asqulth concluded: "I cannot, of course, at this stagei enter Into matters of detail, but I may say that in the course of Viscount Hal dane'a visit to Berlin there was un mistakable evidence of the sincere and resolute desire of both sides for the establishment of a better feeling be tween us. without either side in any way sacrificing or Impairing tha spe cial relationship in which each of us stands to other powers." Mr. Asqulth, turning- to domestle af fairs, with particular reference to home rule, said the government had now what it had not In 1893 it had a majority for borne rule In Great Britain- " Political Arithmetic" lavolted. Bronar-Law Interposed with the re mark: Tou haven't a majority of the independent'Irlsh vote." The Premier retorted: "Eliminating the Irish vote in this house, we have a majority. It is a matter of political arithmetic." The opposition leader, who preceded the Prime Minister, criticised the home and foreign policy of the government and the changes of the government in India. As to home rule, he Insisted that the Premier had adopted an un usual course in leaving the explanation of the measure to his colleague, Mr. Churchill, instead of making the ex planation himself. He hoped soon to be In possession of information as to the future position of the Irish mem bers of Parliament as to whether the customs would be Intrusted to an Irish Parliament. Lord Loasdale Is T'aeaay. The debate waa carried on In the House of Lords by the Marquis of Lonsdale and the Marquis of Crewe. The former said It was impossible to look at the general situation of Inter national polltlca without uneasiness. In the effort to Improve relationa with Germany, however, he said, the gov ernment would have the support of the opposition. The government's executive pro gramme he described as preposterous.

The speech from the throne, which had been anticipated with interest, was a disappointment because of the color less tone of references to epoch-making legislation mapped out by the govern ment. No mention was made of rela tions with Germany, nor was there any allusion to Viscount Haldane's recent trip to Berlin. It briefly referred to the widespread labor unrest. No Intimation was given as to the magnitude of the coming naval esti mates and the suffragettes were not even mentioned.

There is a decidedly dashing and attractive suggestion about the spotless white boots worn in the street now xlth tailored g-arb, having a touch of white In Its make-up. These white boots are usually of buckskin and are built on conventional walking lines, with welted soles and moderate Cuban heels. The tops are a trifle higher than the ordinary boot-top, for with the white boots, white stockings must be worn, and these may not reveal themselves under the hem of the skirt. The boot closes with flat, white pearl rivet buttons, set close together. (From Sunday Oresonfan) PANAMA PROBLEMS OLD M'lXDOK SAYS MAGNITUDE ALOXE IS STRIKING. All Officers of Engineering Service to See Canal AVork to Learn Methods Used. "There are really few of the engin eering features in the construction of the Panama Canal that have not been met before by the Government, and many of them in the work in Oregon, but it is the magnitude of the project that is striking," said Major J. F. Mc Indoe, Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., on his return last evening from the Isth mian territory. "It's worth anyone's time to go there and inspect the canal," said Major J. J. Morrow, also of the engineering arm of the service, and in charge of the first Oregon district. The officers made the entire Journey from Portland, via Washington to the big ditch and re turned also by way of the Capital, and they are full of enthusiasm as to the manner in which the project is being pushed. In their opinion there Is not the slightest doubt but that the canal's ca pacity will be sufficient for many years In handling the enormous trade expect ed to be diverted through it after 1916.
